org.apache.catalina.util
Class FastDateFormat

java.lang.Object
  java.text.Format
      java.text.DateFormat
          org.apache.catalina.util.FastDateFormat

All Implemented Interfaces:: java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable

public class FastDateFormat
extends java.text.DateFormat
extends java.text.DateFormat

Fast date formatter that caches recently formatted date information and uses it to avoid too-frequent calls to the underlying formatter. Note: breaks fieldPosition param of format(Date, StringBuffer, FieldPosition). If you care about the field position, call the underlying DateFormat directly.
